Healthcare remains a top priority on Day 11 of the provincial election campaign.
Liberal leader Iain Rankin will be in Halifax on Tuesday to release the party’s Health Care Platform at the Halifax Common Pavilion on Cogswell Street at 1 p.m.
Tory leader Tim Houston is holding a media availability at the Centennial Building on Hollis Street at 10 a.m.
Houston will then campaign with Cole Harbour-Dartmouth candidate Karina Sanford, Dartmouth North candidate Lisa Coates, and Bedford Basin candidate Nick Driscoll.
NDP leader Gary Burrill is heading to the Halifax area for an announcement on climate change.
Meantime, healthcare, education, and a plan for Cape Breton marked the the 10th day of the campaign.
Rankin promised $69 million dollars for the Nova Scotia Community College, saying the money would add 400 seats in healthcare training and 400 more in construction trades.
Burrill was in Cape Breton where he vowed to save hospitals set to close in New Waterford and North Sydney. He also committed $150 million in direct stimulus to Cape Breton Regional Municipality.
PC Leader Tim Houston was in Halifax where he expanded on the party’s universal mental healthcare plan, which was announced last October.
He says the plan includes a 988 mental health crisis line and increased training options for healthcare providers.
